We’ve barely even met Mantis, one of the newest Guardians of the Galaxy, but she’s already made quite the impression with just seconds of teaser trailer screen time. Played by Pom Klementieff (Oldboy), the Celestial Madonna illustrates her empathetic superpower of reading people’s feelings by touching them. Unfortunately, she still seems to be a tad out of touch with the embarrassment it could bring. The larger role that Mantis plays in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol....

Update: The Avengers: Infinity War social embargo has lifted. Read the first social reactions HERE! Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War is nearing its highly-anticipated release at the end of April, but audiences will have to wait a bit longer than is usual for Marvel films for the movie’s review embargo to lift, as reviews aren’t scheduled to go live until Tuesday, April 24 - the day after Infinity War’s world premiere in Los Angeles, CA, and the week of the movie’s worldwide release....

As part of a wave of newly released Avengers: Endgame character posters. Marvel confirms that Shuri died as a result of Thanos’ Infinity War snap. To call the conclusion of last year’s Avengers: Infinity War shocking would be an understatement. Sure, those familiar with Thanos’ snap from the pages of Marvel Comics had some idea what was coming once he got his hands on all six Infinity Stones, but even they had no way of predicting which characters would survive and which would turn to dust as a result of the MCU version....

Avengers: Infinity War may have been the 10 year anniversary of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but the multi-billion dollar franchise doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. The series started back in 2008 with Iron Man, with the most recent film being Ant-Man and The Wasp. So far there have been 20 movies in the MCU, three of which being Avengers films. The first movie focused on Thor’s brother Loki, the second on a villainous robot named Ultron, and the third on the mad Titan Thanos....

This is big news: Until now, Barnes and Noble was at odds (lawsuits) with Microsoft over its Android-based Nook software. Today, the two companies announced a Digital Joint Venture. While the press release does not say so specifically, it would appear that Barnes and Noble might abandon Android as its future eReader OS. Moreover, this would seem to put the previous patent litigation behind the two companies. Barnes and Noble announced its intentions to spin off its digital arm in January....

James Cameron’s Avatar has reigned over Hollywood as the greatest all-time box office earner among blockbusters for an entire decade now, but Avengers: Endgame may soon take its title as the highest grossing film ever. Though it’s sitting at fifth place on the list of film’s biggest moneymakers at the moment, it has a strong chance of overtaking the competition at its current rate. Avengers: Endgame released a week ago, and some readers may have heard about it....

Marvel Studios is only two films into Phase 3 of their Marvel Cinematic Universe, but they have already been on the receiving ends of two overwhelmingly favorable reactions. Captain America: Civil War kicked off the phase and was just followed up by Doctor Strange beating expectations at the box office. To close out Phase 3, Marvel has tasked Joe and Anthony Russo to direct their third and fourth films in the universe with Avengers: Infinity War and Untitled Avengers....

In December last year, Disney finalized plans to purchase the bulk of 21st Century Fox. Should the deal be approved by regulators, the X-Men and the Fantastic Four will finally become part of the MCU. And it seems Marvel insiders are considering pulling that off by adapting 2015’s Secret Wars event. There’s a sense in which Marvel Studios are celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the MCU by facing their greatest challenge to date....

Marvel has published the second issue of the Avengers: Infinity War Prelude, the official prequel comic book to the next Avengers movie. The first issue of prelude was focused on events set between Captain America: Civil War and Infinity War. It revealed how Shuri will cure the Winter Soldier from Hydra’s brainwashing; what Steve Rogers and his allies have been up to in the last few years; and just why Vision and Scarlet Witch aren’t with either Avengers team....

Releasing back in 1995, the buddy cop action/comedy Bad Boys represented a launching point for three different careers. Will Smith’s run as the star of NBC sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was coming to an end, and Bad Boys was the first test as to whether the public’s love for the actor and musician would translate into big-screen success. Martin Lawrence was in a similar position, having enjoyed fame as a comedian and the star of the sitcom Martin, but not yet proven himself as a film actor....

President Barack Obama released his annual list of favorite films, listing The Irishman and Little Women among his top picks of 2019. The two films premiered this year to critical acclaim. Year end top movie lists are commonplace as a new year approaches, but Obama’s picks always garner immediate attention. The former President is no stranger to releasing his top picks for books, movies, and TV shows. Last year Obama included box office smash hit Black Panther amongst his favorite films....

A Batman movie script written by an AI is definitely The Room of comic book films. Batman has been the star of numerous films, both live-action and animated. The next film is currently being worked on, and stars Robert Pattinson as the Caped Crusader. Out of all the comic book superheroes, Batman has been adapted the most in film. The Dark Knight’s cinematic outings date back as early as the 1940s in movie serials....

With as many different versions of Batman as there have been throughout the comics, various live-action and animated TV series, and movies, there have also been many different versions of the Batmobile. It is perhaps the most iconic vehicle in comic book history, and so it was no surprise when the first image to surface from Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice was a tease of the newly-redesigned Batmobile from the movie....

Unlike previous games in the series, Battlefield V won’t feature any paid expansions (DLC) or a premium battle pass. DICE announced the big news during their official reveal stream on Wednesday to much enthusiasm. This is an effort to push the game’s Tides of War, which is what Electronic Arts is calling the first-person shooter’s ongoing live service, and to keep the community on the same journey. Previous games in the Battlefield series have featured paid downloadable content that added in new weapons, maps, and various other content to the multiplayer....

A recent teaser trailer for Battlefield V may well have revealed some interesting tidbits of information about the upcoming title. Developer DICE took to Twitter to tease the release of the next instalment in the first-person shooter franchise, which is set for release later this year. So far, both DICE and publisher EA have been relatively tight-lipped about the game, but that’s all about to change. As a matter of fact, this week will see the official reveal of Battlefield V as part of a livestream event hosted by The Daily Show’s Trevor Noah....

WARNING: Major spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. Avengers: Endgame creates a big timeline problem for the Marvel Cinematic Universe going forward and, while it’s not a full-blown plot hole, it puts a lot of pressure on the movies coming in Phase 4. While the interconnected continuity has been one of the MCU’s strongest elements, allowing Marvel to tell stories on a scale that would be otherwise unwieldy few would deny it’s been a rocky road for those following closely....

Avengers: Endgame directors Anthony and Joe Russo indicate fans should not be worried about toy leaks for the film because they are largely inaccurate. Ever since the credits finished rolling on Avengers: Infinity War, fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been anxious to know what comes next, but Marvel Studios held off on marketing the fourth Avengers movie until the end of last year, when they finally dropped the first trailer and revealed the title....

Avengers: Infinity War co-director Joe Russo is surprised by news of the film being censored in Indonesia. The beginning of the culmination of the first 10 years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, fans have already assumed that the upcoming ensemble will have a longer runtime than most films, in order to cater to several narrative threads and countless characters. And that’s fine for a lot of Marvel loyalists, considering that Avengers 3 and its still-untitled sequel Avengers 4 will be the last films set in the established lore, before things drastically change come Phase 4....

Marvel Cinematic Universe fans expecting an extended cut of Avengers: Infinity War on home video that re-adds over 30 minutes of footage detailing Thanos’ backstory may want to stop holding their breath. Josh Brolin’s Thanos has been widely and repeatedly cited as one of the strongest aspects of Avengers: Infinity War; despite being a CGI foe with magical MacGuffin goals - something that has waylaid both Marvel and DC in recent years - the Russo brothers were able to imbue the role with real empathy, ironically without ever showing a tragic past which in the comics looms large....
